septic shock
Glucocorticoid therapy may be beneficial to patients who have severe septic shock (defined as a systolic blood pressure <90 mmHg for more than one hour despite adequate fluid resuscitation plus vasopressor administration).
There are no high or moderate quality data to suggest that glucocorticoid therapy is beneficial to patients with less severe septic shock. (See "Clinical evidence" above).
Classification of adrenal reserve as adequate or inadequate fails to identify patients who are more likely to benefit from glucocorticoid therapy. (See "Clinical evidence" above).

warm shock
Warm shock: 尿減少 → HR↑,dyspnea(for compensate),organ failure(如ischemic bowel而想吐,這時HR不是因想吐不適而快,用beta blocker會將好不容易的代償除掉而死)
Sinus Tachycardia是要趕快找underlying處理掉(如hypovolumia),而不能用heart rate藥
過敏和septic shock早期因周邊血管擴張而warm之shock,
只有cardiogenic shock的HR沒上昇
稱之為shock應該都會有尿減少的問題

CVP
不能只從CVP評估fluid,
Intravascular是否水足夠:CVP + Bun/Cre + 尿量(體重)

AF with RVR
cardioversion必須要有CR在,才能執行!因有變cardiac arrest或把血栓打出去的問題
amiodarone原IV後PO,突然又須IV時,則重跑一次bolus→maintainance,沒過一天max dose就好,若仍HR>180,則滴amiodarone時又外加個digoxin(老人沒EF<40問題但怕BP掉和心不好而不想用CCB,BB時)
embolism如ischemic stroke若急診(本來)有Af,要用個2天coumadin才可try弄回正常心律(無如用電擊,beta blocker或其它),否則會把心房內的血栓打出去
Af要150以上才會有症狀(有害),否則只要有在滴amiodarone就好,不一定要再加藥到100以下
Amiodarone alone failed →
1. Cordarone 1# QD(not TID) + Digoxin 0.25mgIV Q8H * 3 then 0.125mg PO QD
2. Isoptin(40) 1# TID + Digoxin 0.25mgIV Q8H * 3 then 0.125mg PO QD

Septic shock with ARF
先charge volume,沒出來才考慮Lasix, albumin
若U/O>1cc/kg/hr, fluid challenge不必急著考慮albumin, FP(not FFP),光charge volume + Lasix PRN即可

Relative intravascular hypovolemia is typical and may be severe. As an example, early goal-directed therapy required a mean infusion volume of approximately five liters within the initial six hours of therapy in the trial described above [17]. As a result, rapid, large volume infusions of intravenous fluids are indicated as initial therapy for severe sepsis or septic shock, unless there is coexisting clinical or radiographic evidence of heart failure.
Fluid therapy should be administered in well-defined (eg, 500 mL), rapidly infused boluses [8,9]. Volume status, tissue perfusion, blood pressure, and the presence or absence of pulmonary edema must be assessed before and after each bolus. Intravenous fluid challenges can be repeated until blood pressure is acceptable, tissue perfusion is acceptable, pulmonary edema ensues, or fluid fails to augment perfusion.
Careful monitoring is essential in this approach because patients with sepsis typically develop noncardiogenic pulmonary edema (ie, ALI, ARDS). In patients with ALI or ARDS who are hemodynamically resuscitated, a liberal approach to intravenous fluid administration prolongs the duration of mechanical ventilation, compared to a more restrictive approach that typically requires large doses of furosemide [27]. Thus, while the early, aggressive fluid therapy is appropriate in severe sepsis and septic shock, fluids may be unhelpful or harmful when the circulation is no longer fluid-responsive. (See "Supportive care and oxygenation in acute respiratory distress syndrome", section on Fluid management).
shock後會有利尿期,這時的補多出多並不是身體覺得水夠,而是利尿所致,更要補水以免脫水(注意bun/cre, electrolyte)

Second-generation Sulfonylureas. More potent and exhibits fewer drug interactions than first-generation agents. May cause more physiologic insulin release with less risk for hypoglycemia and weight gain than other sulfonylureas.
Failure of initial therapy usually should result in addition of another class of drug rather than substitution (reserve substitution for intolerance to a drug due to adverse effects). Considerable debate exists regarding second agents added to (or used initially in conjunction with) metformin. The time-honored approach is to add an insulin secretagogue (usually titrated to no more than the half-maximal approved dose to reduce risk for hypoglycemia). However, some experts recommend a glitazone because of the positive effects of these drugs on inflammation and the vasculature. If this strategy is used, a moderate dose of glitazone (as opposed to the highest approved dose) should be used. A therapeutic scheme utilized by the author is listed in Image 11.
The author usually only uses glitazones in cases of metformin intolerance or contraindication because of the side effects of weight gain and edema seen not infrequently with glitazones. Exceptions to the practice might include patients with marked insulin resistance of relatively normal weight, such as patients of Asian heritage. If an insulin secretagogue is being taken by the patient prior to adding a second agent, the patient should be warned about the possibility of inducing hypoglycemia when another agent is added. In such cases, the insulin secretagogue, not the newly added agent, should be reduced.

Cancer Pain
First step: Acetaminophen
Second step: NSAID (careful), or Temgesic (sublingual tablet)
Third step: Codeine, Tramal, Durogesic patch (Fentanyl patch)
Fourth step: oral morphine solution
Fifth step: IV morphine. Auxillary medication: anti-depressant, anxielytics
Chills or Fever Management
2. First line: Acetaminophen
3. Second line: Vena, Hydrocortisone (Solucortef)
4. Third line: Morphine or Demerol (血壓低病患不宜)
5. Fever 應視情況給予antipyretics 例如1: Past history of febrile convulsion (child), 2:Cardiac or pulmonary insufficiency patients, 3 Pregnancy patients, 4: High metabolism 會惡化thrombocytopenia ,6. Fever or chills 是cytokine reaction 臨床無法分別tumor fever or infection, (不管是feverpattern or temperature) 排除infection 之後才能當成tumor fever, Myeloid Leukemia 基本上不會tumor fever, 應視為infection 處理, Hodgkin disease, Lymphoma(AILD like, T cell, NKcell) tumor fever 比較常見。
